(Part No. SSPB) This has both normally open and normally closed contacts together with RGB LEDs which can be configured to give a selection of different colours to light up the button. They are 24.5mm diameter and fit through a 22mm hole, so I would think they would fit pretty well into the standard Morgan dash plate. That would save making up switch plates as Rog did. Note: the 160mm switch tails are colour coded and come readily installed with resistors for the LEDs. I have shown the white tail as a black dotted line for clarity.
Being double pole, it also enables the reduction of one relay. These switches can also be used for the fog, demist, spot light etc functions too as they are rated at 20 amps.

I have knocked up a drawing (not as nice as Rog, as I am using an old powerpoint software)
Acknowledgements to Rog, without whom none of this would have come about and the usual…all at your own risk of course.
I have not done this yet but just happy to share.

Super helpful as always thumbs

I'll wait for Rog to post his parts list and I'll start collecting and designing my solution....... I'll probably have to ask for help and suggestions along the way!
Thanks so much to all who contribute, it's so helpful when dealing with areas where knowledge is lacking. I always try and answer in areas I'm confident even if it seems simple and obvious as to those it helps it is invaluable.

I absolutely agree notworthy

Many thanks Doug & Roger, wishing you all a very Merry Christmas santa2
